JOG/ SHUTTLE 

  The jog/ shuttle knob is a dual function knob, including a shuttle ring and 

an embedded jog disk, that provides wide range in playback control. Note 
that the jog/ shuttle knob is active only when the unit is in Playback mode. 

  When playing back videos, the shuttle ring can control playback speed in 

either forward or backward directions. Rotate the shuttle ring clockwise/ 
counterclockwise to fast forward/ reverse playing speed. According to the 
angle of rotation, the playing speed changes to 1×, 2×, 4×, 8×, 16×, or 32×, 
in both forward and reverse playback. 

  When the video is paused, the embedded jog disk can control single-step 

playback. Clockwise rotation moves the video image one-step forward, 
whereas counterclockwise rotation moves the video image one-step 
backward. Note that single-step playback is for JPEG recoding only.
